Stress fractures heal with time and rest. Athletes are advised to rest from any activity that caused the stress fracture for the 6-14 weeks that the fractures take to heal (ask your doctor how long your particular fracture will probably take to heal), or until pain-free for 2-3 weeks.
The initial treatment for a stress fracture is to elevate the extremity and rest while the bone heals itself. Ice the affected area for 24 to 48 hours and reduce your activity.For pain, you may use NSAIDs (nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) like ibuprofen, naproxen, or aspirin.or the next six to eight weeks -- or until you're free of pain -- avoid the activity that caused the stress fracture. If you exercise again too soon, you could delay the healing process. You could even cause damage that may never heal properly.
